My friend who's afraid of dirt
Wants to become a gardener
But when she was asked to cut
Off the dead calendula heads
So more flowers would come
She had to force herself to do it
And just sat and wept feeling
They must be suffering
But lo and behold this spring
Two strange plants emerged
In her barren rocky yard
She finally noticed from her window
And when she went out to look
She found them growing red tomatoes
Rejoicing all she had to do
Was remember to water them
As any responsible gardener knew
